    looks like they’re replacing Windows 7 with Windows 8 as the main OS since those are the same price as their Windows 7 SKU. Chances are Windows 7 will no longer be available post feb.

    For sale Windows 8 Pro with Windows 8 Media Center Pack. both with different serial keys (genuine) stored in ISO file in 8 gb flash drive free.09238600393

      What is the guarantee that the keys above were not obtained using a HACKED credit card?

      I’ve bought CD keys from third party “sellers” that turned out to be bought with hacked credit cards, and so when the company found out, the keys were made invalid. It’s also possible these sellers don’t even know the origin of the CD keys they are selling.

      Buyer beware!

    I dunno. If you’re *upgrading* to Windows 8, you’re doing something wrong. :|
